SARAH KERNOCHAN:
We thank the Academy for their wonderful tribute and for supporting this category still. We thank security for letting Thoth play on the red carpet. I am so grateful to everyone who helped me make this film and to HBO which is our new home. And a big kiss for their support to James and Phoebe Lapine, Jack and Adelaide Kernochan and Romeo Gigli. I made this film to call attention to a man who, in a world where people are waging so much war, this man takes to the street and wages love nearly every day of his life. And so I hope that he will think of this as all that love coming right back at him. Thank you.
